I liked the course, but the only problem was that I attended a course only with international students, so we haven't spoken the proper english

Overall
I wish I had known...
I think that it's impossible to describe another experience like this one, if you live it. you can have a lot of information before the departure for the host country, but you will live every single experience when you're living in the host country.

In my opinion:
Most people loved it.
Important factors in my choice
(1) Unimportant – (4) Very important
Personal recommendation
help foreign students to interact a little bit more with local students, maybe it can organize or ask some irish family to take international students in their family, also for a little period, so in this way international students are forced to speak the proper english!!!!
